I'm So Angry At You
I'm so angry
at you
your not
a nice man
You wonder
why people snub you
even your own daughter
You started this
on the day of your mothers
funeral
you said and I quote
"its alright because the old man will be dead soon and it will all be mine"
your aunt did her nut
and told you that was a terrible thing to say
You then said you didn't live my life
no maybe not but
sometimes you have to be grateful for what you've got
You never said another
word
you...

King for a day, fool for a lifetime
Pat yourself on the back
give yourself a handshake
your ability to bore me is impressive
do you practice in front of your mirror?
you must have thick skin
the layers must have accumulated a horrific odor of skunk
what happens when there's no one left to put to sleep?
your obnoxious tendencies irritate me and all the others
you succeeded in being, "That guy" no one likes
Here's a suggestion...
stop trying to one up or outdo whatever I or others have to say
it's not an attractive trait
if you can't be respectable to...

Try Me
Try.
Try to push me down.
Try to crush me under your boot.
I’ll stare at you with fire in my eyes
Until you realize
I will burn
I will burn so bright
No one will be able to ignore me
I will light the fire
It’s time for me to be the green fucking fire
Try to push me down.

I’ll stare at you with fire in my eyes
Until you realize
I will burn
I will burn so bright
No one will be able to ignore me

I Will Not STOP
Listen to me.
He has harassed me for the past year
Whether he knows it or not.
All you can do is talk to him
Like the fucking fragile boy he is.
That doesn’t matter
Because he still gets to walk away
Free and able to do whatever he wants
I sit in this chair
I’m fucking traumatized and scared and angry
But I’m still fighting because nobody should have to deal with this
Do something.
It has gotten past me fighting for me but for...

I Will Be Seen
I feel so defeated
But I can't go down
You ruined so much for me
So l'll keep balancing these water buckets
On my shoulders
As I climb up the mountain
Because I will not let you, of all people, win.
But I can't go down

Don’t You Dare
I think I am tired
From all the standing up
I have a headache
My eyes are puffy
My throat is sore
But I’m not letting you drag me down again.

YOU f**kED ME UP
I finally told them
I spoke up
I’m not afraid anymore

stop fighting your inner beast man
fighting the illusion I hold onto truth
you have never loved anyone
you pity yourself for things you alone have caused
you set into motion a sequence of events
the day you crossed my path
you think to deliver me early to my undoing
wait we're just getting to the good part
vengeance is His alone
you thought I caused your ego issue no it was God
He will recompense for all of your ego polishing you do at my expense
a demon on your back
except it isn't a woman is it?
what you really crave is a man inside you
admit...

She will disappear
Why don't you disappear
Sick of your face each year
Listen to me my dear
The end is growing near
You have tried to threaten me
You have tried to kill me
I'm stronger then you thought I would be
Open your mouth, taste my sweet addiction
Come a little closer, endure my depraved affliction
Accuracy & outcome, guided this conviction
No time for remorse, another crucifixion
Eat the bite
Rinse it down
Run for cover
Stroke the ground
Within is the rival
Must annihilate, for survival
...

Pico de Gallo
Without hesitation, my hands furl
Sharpest blade, carbon steel
Satisfaction, skin splitting open
Guts, juices, spilling out, sweet
Tomato blood thick on these hands
How dare he bring her to my table
Screaming stocks leak chlorophyll
Cilantro, tearing, limb from limb
A hint of intrigue, a freshness
I hope it tastes like soap to you
Depedation and decapitation
Prying outer layers, for insides
Chopping, violent and precise
Onions, your tears, never enough
Tossed with serano and lime
With a smile, I deliver on time, ...
